185: A powerful being who has transcended tribulation? Kneel down and speak!
The group left the underground and arrived at the top floor of Wangxian Hall.
This place was extremely spacious, an open-air platform that drew in the starlight of the Nine Heavens.
Below, hundreds of figures, their auras as profound as an abyss and as majestic as a mountain, already stood respectfully. These were the 185 Tribulation Stage Cultivators of Wangxian Hall!
They had all come after receiving Sword Master's Divine Thought summons.
These top-tier Grand Exponents, who could make the Myriad Spirits Realm tremble with a stomp of their feet on any given day, now appeared incredibly submissive before Sword Master.
Tribulation Stage, very strong!
And very, very strong!
Everyone who reached this cultivation base was a powerhouse. Precisely because they were powerhouses, their gazes towards Cold Moon held the same respect they had for Sword Master, as they couldn't see through Cold Moon just as they couldn't see through the Grand Elder.
However, their attitude towards Su Yang, Gu Yue, Crimson Phoenix, An Ran, Wen Yunyao, Lin Bingqing, and Bai Lingxi was completely different, filled more with confusion and scrutiny.
How did these Nascent Soul Cultivators, the strongest of whom were only at Void Refining, qualify to come to Wangxian Hall? How did they qualify to stand beside the Grand Elder?
Sword Master took in everyone's expressions.
He offered no explanation, simply stepped forward, facing all the Tribulation Stage Cultivators below, and declared with authority:
"Today, I summoned you for one purpose!"
He turned sideways, extending a hand towards the calm-faced Su Yang, and said word by word:
"The Eternal Immortal Emperor has—returned—in this life!!!"
"Boom!"
As soon as these words were uttered, the area below erupted in an uproar!
Eternal Immortal Emperor?
That supreme existence who only existed in ancient legends, occasionally mentioned by Sword Master?
The Eternal Immortal Emperor is this young man in front of them?
Isn't he just an ordinary person at the Peak Late Nascent Soul Stage??? Although the aura on his body did give off a profound and unfathomable feeling, his cultivation base was clearly only at the Peak Late Nascent Soul Stage!
The Eternal Immortal Emperor only has this much strength???
What a joke!
Doubt!
Disbelief!
Absurdity!
Even displeasure at feeling mocked intertwined in the eyes of the many Tribulation Stage powerhouses.
Even without the memories of the Eternal Immortal Emperor, Su Yang knew that to make these immortal cultivation Grand Exponents, whose apparent strength far surpassed his own, serve him, he needed to awe them with even greater strength.
At this point, relying on eloquent persuasion was useless.
He had to use strength to convince them!
He needed to display power, undeniable power!
Su Yang walked to the very front, looking down at the faces below, some old, some majestic, some unruly.
Without further words, Su Yang gently raised his right hand, and the divine sword, already integrated into his body, reappeared.
"Om—!"
The divine sword let out a resonant hum, filled with immense pressure!
The flowing dark gold, crimson, and profound black light on the sword body suddenly intensified, and at the same time, terrifying pressure erupted from Su Yang's center!
"Rumble—!"
In an instant, heaven and earth lost their color!
The entire Wangxian Hall shook violently, and in the sky above, the stars seemed to be pulled down by this sword momentum!
The 185 Tribulation Stage powerhouses below simultaneously felt an absolute suppression from the depths of their Souls at this moment!
The vast true essence within their bodies, like a boundless ocean, instantly solidified. Their proud Law power, which they had only just begun to touch, trembled under this pressure, on the verge of collapsing!
Their immensely powerful Divine Sense melted and retreated rapidly, like ice and snow exposed to the scorching sun!
Even more terrifyingly, an emperor's might originating from a higher dimension, like a tangible mountain, heavily pressed upon their Dao Heart, making them unable to conjure the slightest thought of resistance, leaving only boundless awe and fear!
"Thud!"
"Thud!"
"Thud!"
These Tribulation Stage Grand Exponents, who usually thought highly of themselves, couldn't control their bodies. Under this magnificent imperial might and supreme pressure, their knees buckled one after another, and they fell to the ground!
No matter how much doubt and disdain they had in their hearts before, at this moment, they were all crushed to dust in the face of this absolute disparity in power!
At this moment, their gazes underwent a clear change.
They didn't struggle or feel angry as they knelt; instead, their faces revealed an irrepressible excitement and reverent worship.
Undoubtedly!
This was the Reincarnation of the Eternal Immortal Emperor, who, according to legend, created Wangxian Hall and gave them hope for reaching higher Realms!
"Greetings, Eternal Immortal Emperor!!!"
Someone shouted first, and the next second, kowtows like a mountain tsunami echoed through Wangxian Hall.
They prostrated themselves on the ground, like the most devout believers, welcoming the return of their supreme Dominator.
Hundreds of Tribulation Stage powerhouses were wholeheartedly convinced, without a shred of doubt.
On the surface, Su Yang indeed only had the strength of a Peak Late Nascent Soul Stage, but the pressure Su Yang displayed at this moment instantly stunned everyone present, meaning he must have hidden his true strength!
In this world,
power,
is the best proof of identity!
The Grand Elder had already acknowledged his identity, and now Su Yang had proven his identity with power!
What reason did they have not to acknowledge him!
What did the Eternal Immortal Emperor mean to any Cultivator in the Myriad Spirits Realm? It meant the only immortal deity in this world who transcended the mortal coil!
He was the revered myth of all Cultivators in the Myriad Spirits Realm!
To be able to become the power of the Eternal Immortal Emperor—this was something they wouldn't even dare to dream of!
Their excitement was therefore imaginable.
Su Yang's lips curved into a faint, almost imperceptible smile.
Su Yang slowly sheathed his sword.
The terrifying pressure receded like a tide.
The shock and awe, however, were eternally imprinted deep within their Souls.
He looked down at the kneeling crowd and solemnly said: "Please rise, everyone. The past is gone, but this life is long. Now that this Emperor has returned, I will surely lead you all to overcome obstacles and ascend to higher immortal peaks!"
"We shall forever follow in the footsteps of the Eternal Immortal Emperor!!!"
Hearing Su Yang's words, the people below became even more excited, looking up at Su Yang with fiery gazes.
Su Yang continued, "However, this Emperor must tell you all that the road ahead is long and fraught with danger. You must prepare early. If there is war, you must always be ready to fight!"
"With a command from the Immortal Emperor, we will always be ready to slay demons and eradicate evil for the Immortal Emperor, never retreating a single step!"
Everyone shouted in unison with greattacit agreement.
They hadn't been in Wangxian Hall for just a day or two; those who came early had been here for tens of thousands of years, and even the latecomers had Cultivated here for hundreds of years.
Even though the Grand Elder had never told them the true intention of gathering them in Wangxian Hall, he had said more than once that the Eternal Immortal Emperor would have a use for them upon his return!
That single sentence was enough for them to be ready to go through fire and water at any time!
"Have a use for you," this phrase itself implied that they would face unavoidable dangers in the future.
But!
To become a vanguard under the Eternal Immortal Emperor, what did it matter even if they sacrificed their cultivation base!
Even if their bodies perished and their Dao vanished, it would be eternal glory!
This was the rallying power of the four words, "Eternal Immortal Emperor"!
"Very good!"
"I am very pleased that you all have such determination!"
"When the time is right, this Emperor will help you all Undergo Tribulation together and achieve Mahayana!"
Su Yang shouted with a shake of his sword, completely immersing himself in the role!
After all, this scene was truly awe-inspiring!
Below were 185 Tribulation Stage Grand Exponents!
Upon hearing this, these Tribulation Stage Grand Exponents were all excited.
If it were anyone else, even the Grand Elder, telling them that there was a way to help them Breakthrough the Tribulation Stage and enter the Mahayana Stage, they would have doubts.
But the person before them was the Eternal Immortal Emperor!
The only peerless genius in the Myriad Spirits Realm who had Broken Through the Mahayana Stage and ascended to the Upper Realm! If he said he could help them successfully Undergo Tribulation, then he truly could help them successfully Undergo Tribulation!
